Subject: RE: The Other 50's
Man, You iz old, Kendall. I remember Snookie, too, except Lampson doesn't sound quite right... have to do some reseach and see if that was his last name... real close, if it wasn't. Maybe it was Lampton?

There was a lot of almost folk music in the top 40 too... Mule Train, Call Of The Wild Goose, Wayward Wind, The call the Wind Maria, the Rusty Draper stuff, Sweet Moma, Tree Top High and You Must Come In At The Door by the Mariners, a couple of minor hits by Burl Ives, and several by Jimmie Rodgers (The Honeycomb kid) and the Weavers... and stuff by Tennessee Ernie Ford..
